Project X: Grey: Behind the Scenes: Battle of the Monster X-Bot

In 1692, two girls from a Puritan village in New England start having fits, babbling, and contorting their bodies. The girls accuse three women of tormenting them, and the women are tried and convicted of witchcraft. So begins the infamous Salem witch hunt. Young and old, social outcasts and pillars of the community, women and men—no one is safe, anyone can be branded a witch. No evidence is needed—in the Salem court, the word of the "afflicted" is enough to convict the accused and send them to jail. Nineteen are hanged on Gallows Hill, and four die in prison. A chilling story of fear and paranoia spiralling out of control, with terrifying results.

OCTOBER 1940 I was out, free of my aircraft, tumbling wildly in the air. I pulled the ripcord. I was jerked back by the parachute as air punched into it and I swung there like a puppet, winded and gasping for breath. I looked down at my leg. It felt like a bear was gnawing on it but it was still in one piece. For now, anyway. Then I heard it-right behind me. An Me 109 diving towards me, guns blazing. There was nothing I could do. Nowhere I could go. Shells whistled past me on either side. I just thought, OK then. if this is it, OK. Maybe my turn had finally come...
